About Tammy

I am a certified teacher in the areas of elementary education, special education, and early childhood education. I enjoy working with different types of students. I have worked in the field of education for over 24 years holding different positions.

I find the chance to help a student who is struggling gain a better understanding of the concept that is troubling them very important. I prepare a great deal of materials myself so that I can match the needs of my students to something they can enjoy doing while learning.

I live in Johnstown with my husband John and our dog Bailey. We have one daughter who is married and has a little girl of her own. I love being a grandma. It is a lot of fun. I also love to read. I have accumulated over 250 books that are good for learning and enjoyment reading over the years. I like to lend my books to my friends and students so that they learn how wonderful that reading can be. I love working in the field of education. It has been a wonderful experience for me and I look forward to doing more for as long as I can.I am a certified teacher in the areas of elementary education, special education, and early childhood education.
